I am working on this app and decided to add a listbox to the form since a listbox can contain objects. The objects I decided to add are buttons. When I launch my app. I see the listbox and what appears to be where the buttons are but no text is being displayed. Maybe I am missing the point of the listbox. Can I have buttons in the listbox and have the text display for the bottons?

May i know how can i do this in vb.net? Any reference link?

View 4 RepliesI have a button in my windows form using vb.net when I actually clicked the button something happen then when I press any keys like enter or space, it focuses on the button since it was clicked and the codes in my button is the one that is executing rather than the codes in my enter or space key. I think it means that the button is being pressed when I hit spacebar and enter because there is a blue border in the button. When I click a button the focus remains on the button. I don't know how to remove that.
View 5 RepliesFirstly though, I'll have to mention that I'm a relative newcomer to vb.net and don't really know that much about advanced functions.I have my main form which dynamically generates 15 buttons.
Each of these buttons will need to open another form, depending on which form has been assigned to that button in a config file (the config file isn't yet done, as I want to get it working simply by hardcoding the name of the forms for the time being)
The way I have it in my head is that I would assign the form name that needs to be open to the name of the button, if that makes sense....However, I have absolutely no clue how to do it, I've tried a couple of things but to no avail.
Here's my code, and I have no problem changing any part of it if it will help things along, this is just the only way I know how to create dynamic buttons.[CODE...]
Is it possible to make custom buttons for the forms? I know i can add imaging to the button controls, but if is it possible to really customize the buttons so they look different, like designs instead of blocks?
View 3 RepliesI have a basic math test program, and 2 forms to allow the user to choose which function to test on.
The first form has a list of radio buttons with the 4 basic math functions and a button to load the next form.The second form contains this code on Load..
[Code]...
frmOptions has 4 radio buttons, addition is default chosen.After selecting one, the user clicks a button to open frmTest.The above code runs upon first load to change a label to reflect what was chosen on frmOption above.
On step 3, the label on frmTest that is supposed to be changed based on the Checked radio button from frmOption never changes. It doesn't even change on the first load of the form, so I think something is wrong with the Checked property of the radio buttons.
When you complete various feats in my program, on a form called "User Details" there is a label with the text that says "Complete" only when you have completed a particular game. There is a save button, and a load button, all on different forms. How could I make a save and load feature? One that saves the fact you've completed certain games - and then when you press load after exiting and reentering the program, the Complete text will reappear.
View 9 RepliesI have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?

View 4 RepliesJust a quick question, using Visual Basic 2008, is there a way to change the text of a forms buttons and other objects during runtime so that the text sticks no matter if the form is closed and reopened or not? I can get the text to change, but after closing the window and reopening, the text resets. Is this possible?
View 2 RepliesI'm making a program which will work minimized in the system tray.Now, what it have to do is to load a page [URL] and then input a specific string which i have stored, into this element:
HTML Code:
<input name="ctl00$ctl00$JobnetBaseMiddelContent$LoginContentPlaceHolder$txtUsername" type="text" id="ctl00_ctl00_JobnetBaseMiddelContent_LoginContentPlaceHolder_txtUsername" class="text required" style="width:183px;">
and another string into this one:
HTML Code:
<input name="ctl00$ctl00$JobnetBaseMiddelContent$LoginContentPlaceHolder$txtPassword" type="password" id="ctl00_ctl00_JobnetBaseMiddelContent_LoginContentPlaceHolder_txtPassword" class="text required" style="width:183px;">
and then press this button:
HTML Code:
<input type="submit" name="ctl00$ctl00$JobnetBaseMiddelContent$LoginContentPlaceHolder$btnLogon" value="Log ind" id="ctl00_ctl00_JobnetBaseMiddelContent_LoginContentPlaceHolder_btnLogon">
After that, it would login to the website, and would afterwards press on another button.Each week, i have to login to a website, and press a button in order to keep my current economic status. Which is quite meaningless. Therefore, having a program to press it for me, working in the background, would be so much easier, and make me not forget it?
Ps.The elements info's were received using Google Chrome's "View Element Details".

View 1 RepliesI'm very new to Visual Basic, and have just installed VB Express 2008 from a Sams book titled, "Teach Yourself Visual Basic 2008 in 24 Hours", by James Foxall. I've managed to make it through most of the book, which was very helpful in getting a quick jump start, but I find that I am still "not quite getting it" yet.
I've written a program that has a "Start" and "Stop" button which are suppose to control the logging of data through a serial port. When I click the Start button, the serial port gets initialized, opened, and then I go into a Do-Loop-Until loop to process the incoming data stream, and that is suppose to stop when the Stop button is pressed. However, I haven't figured out how to implement that.

View 3 Repliesnot quite sure why this is happening but I am just debugging right now and the buttons I am using are opening the wrong forms, I have made sure of the form names, button names etc and it looks all good but specifically the btnPrintReport is opening up the form enterAuditForm while btnProcessAudit is opening printAuditForm instead of their correct ones.
Here's my code, it is rather simple. The reason why I am using a separate sub as my btnPrintReport is because I am using that also on the baseForm's OnLoad Event, which again is also opening the wrong form.

I need to be able to add buttons to a tool strip at run time. As of now I've been able to get the buttons to display with a nice little picture just how he wants and some text under it. Just can't figure out how to "enable" the click event for these buttons. Obviously I need them to do something rather than just sit there looking good and this is where I'm stuck. Right now I'd be happy for a message box to come up saying yep I'm working as I could then work with that. This is what I have for code so far... this is just to get it working I'll work on the actual code later.
